Cool Steel Army - Roger Doyle

Advantages: Fabulous story excellently told
Disadvantages: None

...what was related to what, as the author kept the cards firmly against his chest. As a result I had to read more to see what was going to happen and learn the truth. Some of the excellent links I did not anticipate at all. I could not see how his family were really involved with the Steel Witches and what had happened during the war that was so important. There was so much to enjoy, take in and digest in the story, but at the same time because it was well told and laid out you never got lost at all.

Advantages: Great Forehand, Simple Game and Consistent
Disadvantages: None

He already has three Grand Slam titles to his name and in the future he should add many more. Roger Federer is a rather unique tennis player. In many ways, his game and style of play is so simple, which makes mistakes minimal and makes succes at the highest level much easier. However, his forehand is probably the best in the world of mens tennis and possibly the most unique. He has incredible supination around his wrist joint which allows him to generate incredible pace and power, as well unreal angles and accuracy. With this power and accuracy, Federer does have a huge amount of consistency. He doesn't give away many points to his opponents, making beating him that bit more difficult... Read review
